| Abstract | In a multiprogramming, virtual-memory computing system, many processes compete simultaneously for system resources, which include CPU's, main memory page frames, and the transmission capacity of the paging drum. (We define a “process” here as a program with its own virtual memory, requiring an allocation of real memory and a CPU in order to execute). This paper studies ways of allocating resources to processes in order to maximize throughput in systems which are not CPU-bound. As is customary, we define the multiprogramming “set” (MPS) as the set of processes eligible for allocation of resources at any given time. Each process in the MPS is allocated a certain number of page frames and allowed to execute, interrupted periodically by page faults. A process remains in the MPS until it finishes or exhausts its “time slice”, at which time it is demoted. We assume the existence of two resource managers within the operating system: The Paging Manager and the Scheduler. The function of the Paging Manager is to control the size of the MPS, and to allocate main storage page frames among those processes in the MPS. The function of the Scheduler is to assign time-slice lengths to the various processes, and to define a promotion order among those processes not currently in the MPS. The Scheduler must ensure that system responsiveness is adequate, while the Paging Manager is primarily concerned with throughput. This paper studies possible strategies for the Paging Manager. A strategy for the Scheduler is proposed in (2). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
